MACHINE CODE BUILDER DERIVED POWER CONSUMPTION REDUCTION

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an architecture that does not suffer problems in a conventional technology. SOLUTION: A method for meeting requirements for performance of a microprocessor having a plurality of resources, which is executed in a computer having a processor and a memory, includes steps of reading pre-executable code into the memory, and building machine code from the pre-executable code. The pre-executable code includes an indicator indicating the start and end of a block of particular pre-executable code, and a constrained time required for completing execution of the block of particular pre-executable code. The step of building includes an instruction for computing a percentage difference between the constrained time and an actual execution time, and a step of inserting a system call in the machine code to pass the obtained difference to the operating system.
